Lyrics
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Wishing for a joyful Christmas
Let your heart be light
Encouraging a light-hearted and happy spirit
From now on our troubles will be out of sight
Anticipating a future free from troubles
Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Repeating the wish for a merry Christmas
Make the yuletide gay
Suggesting to celebrate the Christmas season joyfully
From now on our troubles will be miles away
Expecting troubles to be far away from now on
Here we are as in olden days
Reflecting on the present moment reminiscent of old times
Happy golden days of yore
Recalling happy and prosperous days of the past
Faithful friends, who are dear to us
Expressing gratitude for loyal and cherished friends
Gather near to us once more
Wishing for the reunion of dear friends
Through the years we all will be together
Looking forward to being together in the future
If the fates allow
Conditional hope for unity if fate allows
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
Suggesting the symbolic act of placing a star on a tree
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Reiterating the wish for a merry Christmas in the present
Here we are as in olden days
Revisiting the nostalgic atmosphere of days gone by
Happy golden days of yore
Recalling joyful and prosperous days from the past
Faithful friends, who are dear to us
Expressing appreciation for friends who hold sentimental value
Gather near to us once more
Hoping for the closeness of dear friends once again
Through the years we all will be together
Reiterating the desire for future togetherness
If the fates allow
Conditional hope for continued unity if fate allows
So hang a shining star upon the highest bough
Emphasizing the symbolic act of placing a star on a tree
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now
Reiterating the wish for a merry Christmas in the present
